New Website @ www.sianpu.info

I would like to announce to my direct and extended network friends that I may not blog much on multiply but at my personal website. I actually have my site in 1999 with www.sianpu.net for free where I registered at NameDeamon. Howevr, it was like 2 years after I changed my site to another free web host at ZDNet.com, they no longer offer web hosting service. The thing I like about my second website is that they offer free CGI scripts with minimal skill to manage, install and update it.

Another TLD I registered is www.sianpu.com and the same thing went with my domain name that I failed to renew this site after about two years and it is no longer available. Hence, I keep on trying to have my personal website beyond the functionality of blogs and other social networking which I have more control and design, I finally choose to register www.sianpu.info.
I'll probably or (I'm sure) keep this site on without any termination of account.

Having website now a day is very easy and it cost very little unlike the first time I have my own site back in Y2K. Well, it is too much introduction about my new site so, let us jump to the new site at www.sianpu.info
Please don't forget to sign my guest book and have your say.
Thanks for your friendship...

Every end is a new beginning :)

Extremely Slow

The internet today is extremely slow and I spend most of my time waiting and waiting Zzzzzz.

A new beginning at MOSA

A new beginning at MOSA:
Myanmar Overseas Seafarer Association.
What is all about this? Why do I attend this training? What for?

Well, this is the common questions asked by my Zomi friends.
They're eager to know about it as they have no clue of what is going on with me at present. Well, I've got have a chance for the interview at CTI for Lewis Cruise Line in Europe last December. Did I say Lwis? Yes, it will be an IT Job, they called it "IT Specialist job" on the ship. About 12 people interview from Myanmar passed for the job and we've in the process of applying for CDI.

Before applying it, we are required to have a certificate from MOSA. This is the brief history of why I go to MOSA. This training will last about one and half to two months from 8:30 to 12:00 Noon. I need to leave home at 7:45 and have lunch somewhere in the town after the training. I continue to work; go to my regular work from 12:30 to 8:30 PM to make it 8-working hours per day.

Do you think I'm happy for that?
Well, Yes. But tiresome since the work is at the right while the training is another thing. Fortunately, I'm totally free on Saturday and Sunday. So, typically Sunday and Saturday is a time for Family.

Do I enjoy at MOSA?
The rules are very strict there. We requested to wear only shirt and longi everyday. No talking during the meeting. We charge fee for late comers- of course for the fund per the instruction of the teachers. We're about 60 people from different background, who are almost ready to go onboard. The teachers and the students voted me to be the class monitor there. Do I have additional task for being a class monitor? Not much a part form recording, organizing and helping the students, teachers for the class

Definition of Best Friend

An English publication offered a prize for the best definition of a friend and among the thousands of answers received were the following:

"One who multiplies joys, divides grief and sorrow."
"One who understands our silence."
"A volume of sympathy bound in cloth and never runs down"

But there is a definition that won the prize:

A best friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out -selected

Does God exist?

If you believe God exists, you gain everything. If you disbelieve, and God exists, you lose everything.

Alternately: It makes more sense to believe in God than to not believe. If you believe and, God exists, you will be rewarded in the afterlife. If you do not believe, and he exists, you will be punished for your disbelief. If He does not exist, you have lost nothing either way.

Quotes


Never take for granted every person close to your heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you've lost a diamond because you were too busy collecting stones-
Many people succeed when others do not believe in them. But rarely does a person succeed when he does not believe in himself- Herb True

Handle with Prayer

Life is filled with many disappointments
Sometimes the load gets too heavy to carry
It's more than you can bear
Give your fragile problem to the Master
Just stand on your knees and handle with Prayer

So many times we tried to solve our problems
We search for the answer in the world
But the answer is not there
JESUS will give the solution
Just bow on your knees and handle with Prayer

Take your problems to the one who calms the storm and water
Take it to the one who really cares
Take it to the one who made the Land
Just bend to walk on your knees again
Handle it with Prayer...

I'm an open guestbook.
Anyone can see who have hurt me.
Anyone can see who have blessed me.
Anyone can see what I have gone through.
Anyone can see who I am now.
Anyone can see who I will become.

Anyone can be a part of my life.
Anyone can be a blessing to me.
Anyone can hurt me.
Anyone can love me.
Anyone can read what my feeling is.
Anyone can see what my philosophy is.

Anyone can sign in my guestbook.
Anyone can write anything in my guestbook.
Anyone can read what others have written.

This is how I become an open guestbook.

Anyone is can be my best friend if she/he chooses to.

If LOVE, I will welcome her with a HUGE HUGH.

After all, no one can shake my foundation because I am deeply rooted in he One I Believe.

3-Minute Photo Resizing

Have you ever thought of sending e-mail attachment to a place like Myanmar where internet speed is under way to reach the average ADSL/ Broadband connection? According to my previous experiences, I saw people sending large attachments to users in Myanmar which sometimes take more than 30 minutes to download for just 5 MB of photo attachment (equivalent to about 3 full resolution photos directly copied from their digital camera).

It is not a problem to send large attachments as large as 5 or 10 MB per message in other countries where there is a full ADSL speed and broadband-type fast connection. However, if you are to send email attachment photos to your family and friends in Myanmar it is advisable to resize the photos before sending to them. In most cases the recipients do not receive the photos completely or worst to it, the message does not reach if the recipients use local-run POP3 e-mails i.e., net.mm, com.mm etc. with dial-up connection. Even if those mails are capable of receiving attachments it could literally take from 15-30 minutes to download them which is equivalent to 50 cents to 1 dollar per hour. To make life easier and save time and money for the recipients you can take a 1-minute tutorial on how to simply resize images and photos for e-mail attachments. Anyone with any level of computer knowledge can learn this with in a matter of just one minute. Did you ever say that you are extremely busy to make that stuff and have not time for photo editing? If yes, it here it is. To resize a photo should not take more than 30 seconds.

You’re now on your way to learn how to resize your photo proportionally with 8 simple clicks.

1. Right click on your photo and scroll down to “Open with” and select “Microsoft Office Picture Manager” as shown below.



2. Click on the “Edit Picture” tab.


3. You will then see the properties at the right pane.


4. Click on the “Resize” button and select your desired size. You may choose “Web- large” for e-mail attachment then click on “OK.”

5. You will need to click on the “Save” button. After saving it, you will notice that the size has changed to 95% or 100% in the view panel and the Size Setting will also be different from the original size.


You now have a perfect resized photo ready to send as an attachment with a very small size.
This could probably have been changed to about 250-300 KB from the original full resolution size 1.5 or 2 MB.

Isn’t it easy buddy?

Technical Support Means...

Technical Support & Repair

In order to provide the best technical support available, a multi-step approach has been developed. These steps include:

Assessment The first step in assessing the problem is listening to the end-user/client. Once the problem is described, the engineer will attempt to replicate the problem so it can be viewed first hand.
DiagnosisThe engineer will, through various test procedures, determine the likely cause of the problem. The client will receive a report as to the nature of the problem and the suggested course of action.
Resolution After receiving approval from the client, the engineer will perform the suggested “fixes” necessary to restore the computer to its’ desired working state.
Recommendations The engineer will make suggestions to help the client avoid similar problems in the future.
